2019-08-04Avoid picking already-bound TCP ports in kerberos and ldap test suites.Tom Lane
src/test/kerberos and src/test/ldap need to run a private authentication server of the relevant type, for which they need a free TCP port. They were just picking a random port number in 48K-64K, which works except when something's already using the particular port. Notably, the probability of failure rises dramatically if one simply runs those tests in a tight loop, because each test cycle leaves behind a bunch of high ports that are transiently in TIME_WAIT state. To fix, split out the code that PostgresNode.pm already had for identifying a free TCP port number, so that it can be invoked to choose a port for the KDC or LDAP server. This isn't 100% bulletproof, since conceivably something else on the machine could grab the port between the time we check and the time we actually start the server. But that's a pretty short window, so in practice this should be good enough. Back-patch to v11 where these test suites were added. Patch by me, reviewed by Andrew Dunstan.

2019-05-08Probe only 127.0.0.1 when looking for ports on Unix.Thomas Munro
Commit c0985099, later adjusted by commit 4ab02e81, probed 0.0.0.0 in addition to 127.0.0.1, for the benefit of Windows build farm animals. It isn't really useful on Unix systems, and turned out to be a bit inconvenient to users of some corporate firewall software. Switch back to probing just 127.0.0.1 on non-Windows systems.

2019-04-14Test both 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.x addresses to find a usable port.Noah Misch
Commit c098509927f9a49ebceb301a2cb6a477ecd4ac3c changed PostgresNode::get_new_node() to probe 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1, but the new test was less effective for Windows native Perl. This increased the failure rate of buildfarm members bowerbird and jacana. Instead, test 0.0.0.0 and concrete addresses. This restores the old level of defense, but the algorithm is still subject to its longstanding time of check to time of use race condition. Back-patch to 9.6, like the previous change.

2019-04-14Switch TAP tests of pg_rewind to use non-superuser role, take twoMichael Paquier
Up to now the tests of pg_rewind have been using a superuser for all its tests (which is the default of many tests actually, and something that ought to be reviewed) when involving an online source server, still it is possible to use a non-superuser role to do that as long as this role is granted permissions to execute all the source-side functions used for the rewind. This is possible since v11, and was already documented as of bfc8068. PostgresNode::init is extended so as callers of this routine can add extra options to configure the authentication of a new node, which gets used by this commit, and allows the tests to work properly on Windows where SSPI is used. This will allow to catch up easily any change in pg_rewind if the tool begins to use more backend-side functions, so as the properties introduced by v11 are kept.

2019-04-12Consistently test for in-use shared memory.Noah Misch
postmaster startup scrutinizes any shared memory segment recorded in postmaster.pid, exiting if that segment matches the current data directory and has an attached process. When the postmaster.pid file was missing, a starting postmaster used weaker checks. Change to use the same checks in both scenarios. This increases the chance of a startup failure, in lieu of data corruption, if the DBA does "kill -9 `head -n1 postmaster.pid` && rm postmaster.pid && pg_ctl -w start". A postmaster will no longer stop if shmat() of an old segment fails with EACCES. A postmaster will no longer recycle segments pertaining to other data directories. That's good for production, but it's bad for integration tests that crash a postmaster and immediately delete its data directory. Such a test now leaks a segment indefinitely. No "make check-world" test does that. win32_shmem.c already avoided all these problems. In 9.6 and later, enhance PostgresNode to facilitate testing. Back-patch to 9.4 (all supported versions).

2019-04-01Unified logging system for command-line programsPeter Eisentraut
This unifies the various ad hoc logging (message printing, error printing) systems used throughout the command-line programs. Features: - Program name is automatically prefixed. - Message string does not end with newline. This removes a common source of inconsistencies and omissions. - Additionally, a final newline is automatically stripped, simplifying use of PQerrorMessage() etc., another common source of mistakes. - I converted error message strings to use %m where possible. - As a result of the above several points, more translatable message strings can be shared between different components and between frontends and backend, without gratuitous punctuation or whitespace differences. - There is support for setting a "log level". This is not meant to be user-facing, but can be used internally to implement debug or verbose modes. - Lazy argument evaluation, so no significant overhead if logging at some level is disabled. - Some color in the messages, similar to gcc and clang. Set PG_COLOR=auto to try it out. Some colors are predefined, but can be customized by setting PG_COLORS. - Common files (common/, fe_utils/, etc.) can handle logging much more simply by just using one API without worrying too much about the context of the calling program, requiring callbacks, or having to pass "progname" around everywhere. - Some programs called setvbuf() to make sure that stderr is unbuffered, even on Windows. But not all programs did that. This is now done centrally. Soft goals: - Reduces vertical space use and visual complexity of error reporting in the source code. - Encourages more deliberate classification of messages. For example, in some cases it wasn't clear without analyzing the surrounding code whether a message was meant as an error or just an info. - Concepts and terms are vaguely aligned with popular logging frameworks such as log4j and Python logging. This is all just about printing stuff out. Nothing affects program flow (e.g., fatal exits). The uses are just too varied to do that. Some existing code had wrappers that do some kind of print-and-exit, and I adapted those. I tried to keep the output mostly the same, but there is a lot of historical baggage to unwind and special cases to consider, and I might not always have succeeded. One significant change is that pg_rewind used to write all error messages to stdout. That is now changed to stderr.

2019-03-16Don't propagate PGAPPNAME through pg_ctl in testsPeter Eisentraut
When libpq is loaded in the server (for instance, by libpqwalreceiver), it may use libpq environment variables set in the postmaster environment for connection parameter defaults. This has some confusing effects in our test suites. For example, the TAP test infrastructure sets PGAPPNAME to allow identifying clients in the server log. But this environment variable is also inherited by temporary servers started with pg_ctl and is then in turn used by libpqwalreceiver as the application_name for connecting to remote servers where it then shows up in pg_stat_replication and is relevant for things like synchronous_standby_names. Replication already has a suitable default for application_name, and overriding that accidentally then requires the individual test cases to re-override that, which is all very confusing and unnecessary. To fix, unset PGAPPNAME temporarily before running pg_ctl start or restart in the tests. More comprehensive approaches like unsetting all environment variables in pg_ctl were considered but might be too complicated to achieve portably. The now unnecessary re-overriding of application_name by test cases is also removed.

c186ba13 has fixed an issue related to the updates of the minimum recovery LSN across multiple processes on standbys, but we never really had a test case able to reliably check its logic. This commit introduces a new test case to close the gap, and is designed to check the consistency of data based on the minimum recovery point set by either the startup process or the checkpointer for both an offline cluster (by looking at the on-disk page headers) and an online cluster (using pageinspect). Note that with c186ba13 reverted, this test fails badly for both the online and offline cases, as designed.

2018-07-12Make logical WAL sender report streaming state appropriatelyMichael Paquier
WAL senders sending logically-decoded data fail to properly report in "streaming" state when starting up, hence as long as one extra record is not replayed, such WAL senders would remain in a "catchup" state, which is inconsistent with the physical cousin. This can be easily reproduced by for example using pg_recvlogical and restarting the upstream server.

2018-05-09Restrict vertical tightness to parentheses in Perl codeAndrew Dunstan
The vertical tightness settings collapse vertical whitespace between opening and closing brackets (parentheses, square brakets and braces). This can make data structures in particular harder to read, and is not very consistent with our style in non-Perl code. This patch restricts that setting to parentheses only, and reformats all the perl code accordingly. Not applying this to parentheses has some unfortunate effects, so the consensus is to keep the setting for parentheses and not for the others. The diff for this patch does highlight some places where structures should have trailing commas. They can be added manually, as there is no automatic tool to do so.

2018-04-07Allow group access on PGDATAStephen Frost
Allow the cluster to be optionally init'd with read access for the group. This means a relatively non-privileged user can perform a backup of the cluster without requiring write privileges, which enhances security. The mode of PGDATA is used to determine whether group permissions are enabled for directory and file creates. This method was chosen as it's simple and works well for the various utilities that write into PGDATA. Changing the mode of PGDATA manually will not automatically change the mode of all the files contained therein. If the user would like to enable group access on an existing cluster then changing the mode of all the existing files will be required. Note that pg_upgrade will automatically change the mode of all migrated files if the new cluster is init'd with the -g option.

2017-12-21Avoid putting build-location-dependent strings into generated files.Tom Lane
Various Perl scripts we use to generate files were in the habit of printing things like "generated by $0" into their output files. That looks like a fine idea at first glance, but it results in non-reproducible output, because in VPATH builds $0 won't be just the name of the script file, but a full path for it. We'd prefer that you get identical results whether using VPATH or not, so this is a bad thing. Some of these places also printed their input file name(s), causing an additional hazard of the same type. Hence, establish a policy that thou shalt not print $0, nor input file pathnames, into output files (they're still allowed in error messages, though). Instead just write the script name verbatim. While we are at it, we can make these annotations more useful by giving the script's full relative path name within the PG source tree, eg instead of Gen_fmgrtab.pl let's print src/backend/utils/Gen_fmgrtab.pl. Not all of the changes made here actually affect any files shipped in finished tarballs today, but it seems best to apply the policy everyplace so that nobody copies unsafe code into places where it could matter.
